[Flask] env variable not set

[west alto]

Hi Gurus,

Noob here. It makes me nuts figuring this out. Kindly help.


   1. import os
   2.
   3. from flask.ext.script import Manager
   4. from api import api
   5.
   6.
   7. manager = Manager(api)
   8.
   9.
   10. def runserver():
   11.     api.run()
   12.
   13.
   14. if __name__ == '__main__':
   15.     root_dir = os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__))
   16.     os.environ["APP_CONFIG_FILE"] = os.path.join(root_dir,
   'env/dev.py')
   17.     manager.run()


running python manage.py runserver gives me this error

RuntimeError: The environment variable 'APP_CONFIG_FILE' is not set and as
such configuration could not be loaded.  Set this variable and make it
point to a configuration file


Thanks,

West
